Day 4,571. One last trip down memory lane. I don't really feel the need to seek validation through this, just sharing what I've been through and this phenomenon. Despite the exploration of the psyche and all the fun little stuff that comes with it, life ultimately goes on. Both myself and the projection realize we got motherfucking bills to pay, things to do, and a life out there to go live. I don't think it really matters who's who, at this point. Who's the original? Who's the projection? Shut up, man. I got to pay rent. Let's work together. It's all frontal facing in the end. As in, point the barrel of your will towards whatever goals you may have, shared or not, or fire off. I'm quite happy in my place in life. I'm aware this isn't a place to share too many personal details, but I will say: I've kept this entirely hidden to myself this whole time. After my initial departing of this site, I didn't really feel a need to go back. It served it's purpose. Now, I guess the ultimate goal of this is to say that life still does go on - and you'll have a strange time. But everybody walks different paths through life. I certainly didn't anticipate mine, but ended up walking a thorned one anyways. What's that saying? Suffering builds character? Sure did. Good luck to the rest of you. Out.

I thought you would. Today I was musing on FIRE EMBLEM and thought about how, in a different world, I would be a shoe-in for being a druid (read: a scholar of advanced dark magic.) I'm very much inured to the idea of inviting primordial essence into the body and permitting it increasingly dubious influence over the self in exchange for absolute power. Small wonder I'm so drawn to the occult. I'm just dandy. I recently fed Twi a proper lunch, and even dressed in all black for her. She loves it when I do that. How are you?

--- Motivation-depressive mood has struck suddenly again, even though I did every possible thing right today Whatever

I see we're already done with the formatting

The worst part is that I don't think there's any difference either. That sucks. That really shouldn't happen. Lol, I like that description. 😁 Kinda drifty today but pretty good. 😊 How are you?

The insectoid species that will surpass us after the next three solar flares will be in for one hell of a treat

Are many of those not-plants?

it's crazy how most readily available flammable materials used to be alive

Inflammable really should mean non-flammable

it's frustrating how even well researched works can include careless falsehoods

Inflammable? Doesn't that mean it won't explode? What a country! As much energy as an eldritch meat-puppet can exude. How are you, Shaula?

Hi, Karl! 😊 Nice to see some energy from you! 😁

Hi Dr. Nick!

Hi everybody!

That being because his PR was just recently moved back to Progress Reports from Lounge to be clear, not because it was mysteriously not counting posts

interesting

Oh that reminds me, did KruegerMeister's post count ever update? ... Nope, huh. I know PR posts count towards post count since like 90% of Mai's posts are in PRs, I guess KM's just won't recount until some kind of forum reboot or whatever other re-word I can't remember is. I know Pleeb did it once in the last year so it's not never, but I guess it could be a while

alas

I would imagine they don't, so I wonder what my true post count is I can see deleted posts and I can subtract LOTPW's, but I have tons of Lounge posts as well which would swamp my deleted posts so, no real way to know as far as I know (other forum softwares usually let you search by board, but not this one I guess, you can only search threads via board, but even then I can't search without putting text in) Well, just subtracting LOTPW from my total posts and including deleted, I have 3503 posts including forum games (aside from this one) and Lounge, although most of my Lounge posts are on-topic discussion anyways lol. Kind of, yes Like 5% maybe, not accounting for if she has less time than she used to

What a way to say goodbye. I actually had no clue. 😅 Yeah, I don't think anyone can catch Bre. How I read it: "I'm only using one percent of my power!"

could be

Huh, I wonder if deleted posts (moved to Your Deleted Posts, not truly deleted) still count towards your post count Because I have a lot of posts in deleted threads/PRs...

Me too. I had a family friend that I would play it with all the time, and then we'd take turns playing through world of light Spoilers, bravely default is, bravely, default

i have a lot is good memories of everyone bringing their switches and playing smash on the bus in marching band

Spoilers but kind of core to meta discussion of the game - Bravely Default just gets really boring for like the middle 50% of the game as it just loops repeatedly. I "got stuck" on the last loop because I refused to keep grinding on filler enemies in already-completed dungeons like it expects you to, although it does get extremely difficult approaching the end, expecting you to use one of several ways to just do multiple 9999s every single turn So it's kind of hard to recommend just playing the whole thing, but "aside from that" - as big an aside as that is - it is still an awesome game, and buried in the hour+ of end cutscenes the twists at the end were really great. Bravely Second might have slightly lower highs, but its lows are nonexistent if you don't mind the incremental-idle(ish) game it has, though I suppose it can be ignored outright as there's a Job for farming money instead if preferred Also my experience playing on Hard was losing to almost every main boss once before retrying and beating it the second time, so I'd say its balance was much better than Default's
